What is the fondest memory from your playing career at DeSales?
Being able to be a leader on the team - by my play on the field -instead of one of the vocal guys who made the speeches and ending the season with 180 tackles.

2009 Regional Champions

What made playing for DeSales so special?
Being able to move from out of state freshman year and earn the trust of the guys around me, to have great teammates around me that could make plays and celebrate each other.

What was your best game?
As a senior linebacker having two twenty game tackles vs St. Charles and Elder. On one hand we kept the streak going on a very tough rival school and the other was against a nationally ranked team.

What was like playing for Coach Wiggins?
Being under Coach Wiggins, he was able to talk about tradition that DeSales has from past to present and throughout my years seeing the team grow and buy into the DeSales family and hard work led us to great years.

Do you still follow DeSales, if yes, how closely?
Yes I do. I have been following pouring purple throughout my college years and professional life watching clips and sometimes listening to the live game has been great. Seeing the talent and highlights of the young men has been great and makes me proud.
